Openstudio installation problem

john2

I need some help in installation of Open studio - the energy modeling software tailored to work in tandem with SketchUp. I know I should post it in the required sub-topic, but I did not get any response.Actually, I"m getting the error during installation

unable to locate your sketchup installation.

Yeah, open studio as a standalone software installs certain plugins inside sketchup by itself. Unfortunately, I can't specify where exactly my plugin directory is located unlike V-ray installation.

I am doing everything under administrator account and with all the administrator privileges.
I am using sketchup 2014

So...anybody using Openstudio?

I would suggest making a directory where sketchup 8 would have been...

C:\Program Files (x86)\SketchUp\SketchUp 8\Plugins\

then see if the files end up there.

Don't know if that will help when the program looks for them though. Maybe install V8 just to do Energy Work?

Look at my SU Architecture plugin list. At the bottom there is a list of Energy Plugins.

Thanks for replying and wow!! what an amazing list! I have just saved the web page for future references.

Well, unfortunately making SketchUp\SketchUp 8\Plugins\ folder did not help.

I am still getting the error. Hey! Why don't you try doing the same thing and see what happens?

Looks like you are trying to install 1.4 whereas SU2014 needs 1.5

Isn't it amazing how easily a question can be answered when useful information is provided?

Thanks a gigaton! I've been pulling my hair in frustration for the past two months about this openstudio problem.

Then i installed legacy openstudio plugin but got stuck somewhere else. Frustration at peak..

But now, everything is cool...

I'm feeling like Tom Cruise of Jerry Maguire movie screaming "Show me the forums . I love SCF people"

Thanks from the bottom of my heart..
